"Valentine" Knocking Doors!..Tips to Shower Suitable Gift

By Salma Yassin

CAIRO Jan. 27 (SEE)-According to etiquette rules, affectation has nothing to do with Valentine’s Day, so away from saving a lot of money and seeking for the most expensive gift, February 14th is a day of showing love, respect and appreciation.

Now, while partners and lovers are thinking about which gift they should buy and how to spend a distinct and unforgettable time with their partners, the following tips will definitely help.

Tendencies 

It’s very important to know your beloved's tendencies and interests, so that you can offer a wonderful gift that your partner really needs or love.

If you are at the beginning of a relationship and you are not aware enough of that, then it’s preferable to ask one of partner's close friends or relatives.

This will not only delight your beloved, but also shows how much you care, and might be a pretty cool start for a new life together.

Romantic Message

Words might not find a way to come out while presenting your gift, that’s why a decent card; with a good handwriting and words chosen carefully to express your emotions and how you feel deep inside will serve the moment.

Also, those stuck words will remain forever to remind both of you of such a special memory.

Wrapping

Whatever gift you get, velvet fabric is a perfect choice to use in wrapping; as it reflects warmth and elegance, especially in one of the cold-February nights.

Regarding colors, try to avoid the common “RED”, and instead you can have a unique taste by choosing purple, blue, gold or black and white plain covers.

Price

Despite repeating that millions of times, some people still forget to remove gift’s price; this is a mistake that can turn the whole day upside down.

Timing

To maximize recipient’s pleasure, you have always to present your gift while your beloved is in good mood.

This could be attained in the middle of your outing together, or after watching a wonderful film in the cinema, but take care not to be too late so that he might think you forgot bringing his gift.

Posture and Eye contact

Finally, the way of delivering gift must reflect pleasure and gratitude, hence stand straight, then draw a slight smile on your cheeks while your two hands are holding the gift and two eyes keep a steady eye contact with your only one.
